Richard left issue, Richard, d. s. p.; Isabella, heiress of her brother, m. in the 4th of 
Richard I [1193], Richard Harcourt, of Bosworth, co. Leicester. [Sir Bernard Burke, 
Dormant, Abeyant, Forfeited and Extinct Peerages, Burke's Peerage, Ltd., London, 
England, 1883, p. 100, Camville, Barons Camville, of Clifton]

Third son of Richard de Camville, who founded Combe Abbey, in Warwickshire, and 
was son and heir of Gerard de Camville, Lord of Lilbourne, near Creek, in 
Northamptonshire. Isabel's mother was Milicent, cousin to King Henry I's second 
consort, Adeliza, daughter to Godfrey I, Duke of Brabant, who gave to the said 
Millicent, on her marriage with the said Richard Camville, the lordship of Stanton, in 
the county of Oxford, which was confirmed to her and her heirs by Kings Stephen and 
Henry II. [John Burke, History of the Commoners of Great Britain and Ireland, Vol. II, 
R. Bentley, London, 1834-1838, p. 221, Harcourt, of Ankerwycke]

In the time of King Stephen, Richard de Camville was founder of Combe Abbey, co. 
Warwick, and was one of the witnesses in the 12th of the same reign [1147], to the 
convention between that monarch and Henry, Duke of Normandy, regarding the 
succession of the latter to the crown of England. This feudal lord appears to be a 
person of great power during the whole of King Henry's reign, and after the accession 
of Richard I, we find him one of the admirals in the expedition made by that monarch 
into the Holy Land. He was subsequently governor of Cyprus, whence he went without 
the king's permission to the siege of Acre and there died. His lordship left four sons 
and a dau., viz.,

I. Gerald, his heir,
II. Walter, left issue,
1. Roger, who had an only dau. Matilda, m. to Nigel de Mowbray, and (dsp)
1. Petronilla, m. to Richard Curzon.
2. Matilda, m. to Thomas de Astley.
3. Alicia, m. to Robert de Esseby.
III. Richard, left issue,
1. Richard, (dsp)
1. Isabella, heiress of her brother, m. Richard Harcourt, of Bosworth, co. Leicester.
IV. William, the youngest son, m. Albreda, dau. of Geoffrey Marmion, had issue,
1. Geoffrey, his successor.
2. William, of Sekerton, co. Warwick
3. Thomas
V. Matilda, m. to William de Ros.
